Comments

If you prefer, you can omit the meat, and saute the onion in a Tbsp. of vegetable oil instead. Or, you could saute 1/2 green bell pepper, chopped, along with the onion. Also, if you're in a hurry, you can use 2 cans of tomato sauce, omitting the canned tomatoes, use a Tbsp. of Onion powder instead of the onions, and cook, uncovered, for 3 minutes instead of simmering. For extra tasty spaghetti, try sprinkling a little parmesan cheese over the sauce just before serving.
